Sorry to hear about your job. I know the feeling. I lost mine last May and have been trying to some stuff on my own ever since. It was been a slow start but things are looking up.

A guy with your skills should find something quick. Good luck!! I'll be praying for ya!

Well, some news...

My manager, who was not informed of ANY of these layoffs, has lobbied successfully to have my termination reversed. Basically, I'd go back to work just like nothing ever happened.

I agonized over this decision all weekend and even though it's going to suck huge amount of ass, I am going to go back tomorrow.

Hopefully everything works out.

You should go back to work until you find something else. Then, give them the courtesy of 2 weeks notice and move on.

Jeez the market is even shit in Canada.

It's really bad around here, South Florida. I've got a pretty good job and they treat me great, but I don't see myself doing this for the next 3-4 years. Looking for something with a pension and that type of shit. Fed Ex Freight here I possibly come?!
